The original Andrew joins us again to talk about the FA Cup weekend, as well as Villa's Capital One Cup defeat to Bradford. We try to work out where Villa can go from here, and what they need to survive. Our resident Toon, Charles, then leads us through a discussion on Newcastle's current plight and how they can be thankful that Villa are so poor, keeping some spotlight off Newcastle. We also chat Suarez's handball goal, common sense in footballers, the number of clubs who will be unhappy to have FA Cup replays on the horizon, and the Ballon D'or  awards ceremony, especially the all La Liga team of the Year.

Lots has happened in the football world since we last spoke, but not much of it happened on the football field. This week we chat about the managerial changes at Chelsea and Queens Park Rangers, and how Benitez and Redknapp will fare. There was some football on the weekend and we actually almost mention a few of the games. We also pay homage to Joey Barton's ridiculous press conference.

Ah, the joys of another Arsenal defeat. And a United fan on the podcast to rub it in. This week in Propping Up the Table we take a close look at Manchester United's easy victory over the lifeless Gunners, trying to work out where Arsenal go from here. We also focus on Everton and their top-4 credentials, and the disappointing results for Chelsea and Manchester City in the league, as well as City's struggles in Europe. Charles also suggests a charity Christmas gift for football fans. Andrew Moore no 38:48
